Carmine Agnello, the son-in-law of John J. Gotti, the imprisoned Gambino family boss, pleaded guilty yesterday to federal racketeering and tax charges. Mr. Agnello, 41, was indicted in January 2000 on charges of using arson and other strong-arm tactics to take control of the Queens scrap-metal industry. Under his plea bargain with federal prosecutors, Mr. Agnello will serve nine years in prison and forfeit $10 million in illegal profits. Alan Feuer (NYT)
